Consumer Description

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW FROM A CHEVY DEALERSHIP IN EDEN PRAIRIE, MN. AFTER ONLY 2 MTHS, IT BEGAN INTERMITTENTLY HESITATING, LURCHING FORWARD WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE (WHILE SOMETIMES BLOWING HOT AIR FROM THE AC) & REFUSING TO ACCELERATE. MULTIPLE TIMES IT HAS COMPLETELY STALLED OUT (WHILE DRIVING 30-40 MPH ON A HIGHWAY & WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP ON A HILL RESULTING IN ROLLING BACKWARD). IT IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE 4TH TIME FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE, BUT DOES NOT SHOW ANY CODES (NO SES LIGHT). THEY HAVE MADE MANY REPAIRS IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX THIS ISSUE (LEAKING WATER PUMP, REPROGRAMS, WASTEGATE SOLENOID REPLACEMENT, ETC), BUT THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS. I AM CONCERNED THAT MY CAR WILL STALL WHILE ON A HIGHWAY OR PASSING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION, WHICH WOULD POSE A HUGE SAFETY THREAT. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS & WOULD LIKE GM TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY & REPLACE/RECALL THESE VEHICLES. *TR
